when the engine is cold the car starts right up. when it warms up and you shut it off, it acts as if it has to battery power. will not crank, has no power. replaced starter, battery, alternator and solenoid switch within the last week.

If it acts like a dead battery when you turn the key to cranking position -check and test the neutral safety switch and ignition switch
